The Powers #11 Water Mix Regulator is a self-actuating control valve which
auto-matically maintains a mixture of hot and cold water at the desired set point without
the use of external power. Adjust the set point and the rugged self-operating #11
Regulator controls the mix of hot or cold water to maintain a constant temperature.
The instrument has a vapor pressure thermal system containing a thermally
respon-sive fluid. This thermal system rapidly senses temperature changes at the bulb and
accordingly positions the valve disc or plug, regulating hot and cold water flow to
maintain the desired set point. The thermal system features a two-ply brass bellows
with six reinforcing ribs on the bellows head and thick capillary tubing walls to insure
long operating life.
The Powers #11 WM Regulator features:
• Tight disc shutoff when either of the two inlet ports are closed (up to 2")
• EPT disc is replaceable (on 1/2"-2" valves).
• Lower guide stabilizes valve plug, assisting shutoff and modulation.
• EPT spring loaded V-ring packing provides good sealing and long life.
• A valve stem of highly polished corrosion resistant grade 316L stainless steel to
decrease friction and reduce hysteresis.
• An adjusting nut mounted on ball bearings and a removable set point adjusting
rod ease set point adjustments
• A set point reference scale aids temperature adjustment.
The #11 Regulator should be installed with
the hotter of the two liquids going into the
bottom ‘B’ port and the cooler liquid going
into the upper ‘U’ port.
(A) When the temperature of the mixed liquid
drops below the set point, the temperature of
the thermally responsive fluid decreases,
which decreases the vapor pressure in the
bulb/bellows. The force of the resulting vapor
pressure is less than the spring force, so the
bellows contract and the spring extends,
which raises the valve plug up to decrease
flow through the upper ‘U’ port (cold) and
increase flow through the bottom ‘B’ port
(hot). This raises the temperature of the flow
out of the common ‘C’ port toward the set
point.
(B) As the temperature increases toward or
beyond the desired set point, the
tempera-ture of the thermally responsive fluid in the
bulb increases, which causes the vapor
pres-sure to increase. This expands the bellows,
compresses the spring, and moves the valve
plug down to increase flow through the upper
‘U’ port (cold) and decrease flow through the
Temp. Below Set Point Temp. Above Set Point U C B U C B VAPOR LIQUID BULB CAPILLARY TUBING SPRING BELLOWS VALVE PLUG LIQUID VALVE PLUG SEATS VALVE PLUG VALVE PLUG SEATS Cold Mixed Hot Cold Mixed Hot

JACKET WATER COOLING APPLCIATION
Powers #11 Water Mix Regulators are typically used for automatic control of domestic or process water tempering. The self-actuated regulator can easily be installed in any convenient location. Among its applications are: two-temperature hot water systems, jacket water cooling of engines or compressors, and many other industri-al processes. Below are two typicindustri-al applications.
The three-way regulator can also be used for bypass control, in lieu of a diverting valve, but it must be piped as a mixing valve, with two inlets and one outlet.
WARNING:
In domestic water system, a safety shutdown
device should be installed in conjunction with a #11
regulator. Failure of the #11 thermal system will
result in a constant rise in temperature (or constant
high temperature ) of the fluid which you are trying
to control.

Maximum Operating Pressure Differential (differential for fluid flow): In order for the process medium to flow, a pressure drop
must exist across the valve. “Pressure differential” is the difference in valve pressure between the inlet and outlet under flow condi-tions. The greater the differential, the greater the flow at any given plug position.
Though the regulator should be sized for actual conditions, you need to know the available differential at maximum flow. For opti-mum control, take as much differential as possible across the valve.
Refer to Maximum Water Capacities tables on page 4.
PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
SIZING AND SELECTION
Proper sizing of the Regulator is essential for correct system oper-ation. An undersized Regulator will not allow sufficient flow at max-imum load. An oversized Regulator may cycle and will not utilize the full valve stroke for efficient modulation of flow. This results in poor control and shortened valve life (quicker deterioration of valve disc and seat). For these reasons, the correct sizing of the Regulator for actual expected conditions is considered essential for good control.
Note: Select temperature range (see page 14) with the set point in the upper third for best valve performance.
Size the #11 Regulator for actual rather than maximum conditions. DO NOT size according to pipe size; piping systems are designed for different criteria than process controls. Refer to Powers

PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
A red label should be on the front face of the thermal system. Figure 1. This label contains information required to properly
main-tain, service and order parts for this product. If there is no label, look for a white label on the inside of the thermal system legs (Figure 2A) or the valve body vertical yoke (Figure 2B). When replacing the original thermal assembly or valve body, secure the old red label onto the valve or thermal system or ink the number onto the body.
INSTALLATION
TOOLS NEEDED
• Straight slot screwdriver • 5/16" open end wrench • 3/8" open end wrench • 7/16" open end wrench • 1-3/8" open end wrench • Pliers
• 1/2" wrench for hi-power regulator housing bolts BEFORE INSTALLING VALVE
1. Figure 3. For 2-1/2” to 4” valves, remove bellows stops before installation and use.
2. To insure proper system operation, thoroughly flush all piping and valves to rid them of all scale, dirt and debris.
Position Valve
3. Select valve location with sufficient clearance to allow mainte-nance. Install valve in line. The direction of the arrows on the valve body must match the direction of the water or steam flow.
For best results, we recommend installing the valve in a hori-zontal line, and in the upright position with bellows head above valve. The valve may also be installed in any position within 90° of upright.
4. Figure 4. The direction of the arrows on the valve body must match the direction of the water flow.
Pipe the hot water to the bottom ‘B’ port, and the cold water to the upper ‘U’ port. The mixed water will exit the valve through the common ‘C’ port.
DO NOT reverse the inlets; the valve will not properly control the temperature of the mixed water if hot and cold supplies are reversed.
INSTALL BULB
5. Figure 5a shows proper bulb orientation. Figure 5b shows the special bulb needed for upwards vertical positioning. 6. Figure 6. For any position, fully immerse the bulb in the flow of
the medium.
These instructions are for D style bulbs - for installation of other styles, refer to tag attached to bulb.

3. Incorrect piping to valve. Refer to Operation and/or
Installation.
4. Bulb is poorly positioned and/or oriented, and will not control the actual temperature of the heating/cooling medium. Refer to Install Bulb.
5. Incorrect type of bulb is being used. See Table on page 11. 6. Pressure differential is greater than allowable pressure drop.
Refer to Water Mixing Capacities tables.
7. Disc is worn. Replace disc (refer to MAINTENANCE). 8. Valve cannot close against hot inlet. Foreign material may be
between the disc and the valve plug seat. Refer to Replacing
the composition disc for disassembly. Clean.
9. Packing gland assembly is too tight, locking valve stem. Loosen packing gland assembly and lubricate if desired. 10. Bent valve stem; need to replace. Refer to Maintenance for
disassembly instructions.
• Chattering of Valve
1. Regulator installed with the flow of the control medium in reverse of arrow direction on valve body.
2. Pressure differential too high, refer to Water Mixing
Capacities tables for correct pressure differential range. • Constant rise in mixed water temperature
1. A constant rise in temperature may indicate the thermal sys-tem is leaking charge and/or the valve has failed with the port for Hot water fully or partially open.
6. The distance between the marks is the valve plug travel. This should correspond with the TRAVEL value in the VALVE DIMENSIONS table on page 10. No movement or only
par-tial movement indicates the thermal system is defective and should be replaced with a new system.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Once every three months, inspect the Regulator as follows: 1. Visually check for leaks from the valve body joints,
piping-to-valve connections, packing and stem areas.
2. Visually check for excessive corrosion on the regulator, includ-ing the bellows, capillary, bulb, thermal system legs, bridge, and yoke. Also check for excessive corrosion on the valve body.
3. Perform the instructions in Testing the Thermal System. Less than full valve travel may indicate a leak in the bellows, capillary, or bulb, or other problems. This may result in exces-sive temperature in the process.
4. Test the temperature adjusting nut assembly for freedom of movement (see Adjust Set Point for instructions).
5. Remove bulb from the process fluid and check for excessive corrosion, or erosion that may weaken the bulb and/or cause thermal system failure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• Erratic temperature control (valve cycles too hot/too cold) 1. Highly fluctuating supply pressures.
2. Sticking stem caused by packing gland assembly too tight, locking valve stem. Loosen packing gland assembly and lubri-cate if desired.
3. Sticking stem caused by bent valve stem or valve stem not properly lubricated. Refer to Maintenance for replacement. 4. Valve sized incorrectly. Verify valve selection.
5. Regulator is controlling at incorrect set point. Refer to Adjust Set Point.
6. Bulb is poorly positioned and/or oriented, and will not control the actual temperature of the heating/cooling medium. Refer to Install Bulb.
7. Incorrect type of bulb is being used. See Table on page 11.
WARNING: Failure of the thermal system will result
in a constant rise in temperature (or constant high
temperature) of the fluid which you are trying to
control.
